Hair loss during cancer treatment can be one of the most traumatic and stressful side effects of fighting the battle against cancer.
Wearing a wig shouldn’t make you feel self-conscious. Instead, it should empower you to feel more beautiful and confident.
A wig will help you look good and feel better.
When your world has been rocked by a cancer diagnosis, doing things that make you feel ‘normal’ again can be cathartic. Something as simple as getting up and styling your hair for the day evokes comfort and a sense of familiarity. Our hair is one way we express our individuality, so using a wig during transition can help you keep your personal style.
Take back control.
If losing your hair is upsetting to you, wearing a wig is one way you can gain control over the situation. A wig will allow you to decide what style, texture, length, and even color you want for your individual look. Do blondes have more fun? Take this opportunity to try a new hair color or style. If experimenting with a wig gives you the freedom to be yourself during this difficult time, do what’s best for you!
Less work for you.
Most wigs will keep their shape and style if stored correctly once they are removed from your head. Less time doing your hair in the morning means more time for coffee! Once you choose your wig, the team at Wigful Thinking offers styling services and products that will help provide you with the look you’re wanting to achieve. They will show you how to keep your wig in top shape and provide instructions on how to care for it correctly.
